As regular readers of this blog might know, I am a trustee of the Massachusetts Bar Foundation, the premiere legal charity in Massachusetts devoted to increasing access to justice for all, regardless of income or status. I also have had a long-standing relationship with the talented folks at the Legal Talk Network, who have produced my Lawyer2Lawyer podcast for close to five years.

So when the MBF was looking for help producing a video to commemorate its 45th anniversary, it made sense for me to introduce them to the LTN’s founders, Lu Ann Reeb and Scott Hess. Lu Ann and Scott not only agreed to produce the video, but to do it for free! The result was outstanding. The video was overwhelmingly well received when it had its premiere at the MBF anniversary dinner in January. On Friday, the video will be shown again at the Access to Justice Awards Luncheon during the annual conference of the Massachusetts Bar Association.

Here is the video:
